DOWNLOAD: On this Labor Day, it’s a good question to consider: how do you feel about your job?

If your answer is less than “love it,” there’s a new study that says you could grow to love your job. It will take time though.

A new study by researchers at the University of Michigan says that many jobs simply aren’t a love-at-first-sight situation. Instead, it says that having a passion for your work is something you can develop over time.

“The good news is that we can choose to change our beliefs or strategies to cultivate passion gradually or seek compatibility from the outset,” says one of the researchers.
